--- Comment #6 from Ralf Jung <p...@ralfj.de> --- Thanks for getting back to this! I know dealing with user complaints can be tiring, and I appreciate the time you are taking. :) > That's the problem; qt5ct is a DIY QPT that gives you the user control over > everything a QPT can do.

But if you're looking for something that works > well out of the box, qt5ct is not the best choice. :) Without that env var (i.e., out of the box), it looks even worse, and the cursor is just as wrong. So qt5ct is not responsible for the cursor problem. > Probably this one: https://github.com/FedoraQt/QGnomePlatform "QGnomePlatform project is unmaintained a no longer actively developed." I have qt5-gtk-platformtheme installed. I have no idea if there's anything I am expected to do beyond installing it, but it doesn't seem to help. > I know there's some resistance to the concept of adopting a native > look-and-feel in some GNOME circles, but Qt is based around this concept, so > when a GNOME-focused distro fails to do the necessary setup, the end result > is that Qt apps look and feel terrible when run in GNOME.

It's a "we have everything" distro, isn't it? The Qt package can't know which DE I am using. Obviously most KDE contributors use KDE as their DE so there's no reason why they would care about how their apps look like on GNOME, and I can't blame them for that, it's free software after all. But it is unfortunate that this means mixing the best parts of GNOME and KDE is a lot more work than it should be. If Qt aims to be "native" in every environment it is started in, I guess it would be a Qt bug (or at least feature request) if Qt apps don't look native on GNOME by default? It would certainly be a bug if Qt apps looked like this on Windows or macOS... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
